(I may have screwed up the address) A Look at the Running Backs NewOrleansSaints.com Thursday, July 19, 2007 - 3:00 PM RUNNING BACKS Deuce McAllister: 7th NFL Season: 7th with Saints Reggie Bush: 2nd NFL Season; 2nd with Saints Aaron Stecker: 8th NFL Season; 4th with Saints Jamaal Branch: 1st NFL Season (accrued season under NFL guidelines); 2nd with Saints Antonio Pittman: Rookie Season Pierre Thomas: Rookie Season Depth, depth and more depth. When the Saints drafted Reggie Bush second overall in the 2006 draft, fans wondered how the carries would be shared between Bush and veteran Deuce McAllister. There was concern that McAllister would not be happy about sharing touches. The situation could not have worked out better. McAllister and Bush, who employ different running styles, have a singular goal in mind: winning. Both players epitomize the phrase “team players” and are leading presences in the Saints’ locker room and beyond. Deuce McAllister Deuce McAllister photo by Michael C. Hebert McAllister, the “thunderback” out of Ole Miss, has no problem splitting carries with the dynamic Bush and the two runners complement each other like few other duos in the league. McAllister churned out three one hundred yard rushing games out of the last four games he appeared in during the regular season and eclipsed the 1,000 yard mark for the fourth time in his first six season. In so many words, Deuce was turned loose, a harbinger of things to come in ’07. |

How can you not love our chances with the running backs we have. These guys are special. I even like the ones who haven't played a down. All I can say is WOW! What a team.
